Quick info
About Scalinis
Scalinis on Ravendale Street North in Scunthorpe is a walk-in fish and chip shop and fast food restaurant, with seating inside and out for customers who want to eat on site. The kitchen cooks fish to order, and regulars tend to order the haddock and chips with mushy peas or the sausage and chips. Portions run large and service is fast, with the room kept clean throughout the day. Orders are placed at the counter, and the kitchen closes roughly 30 minutes before the front door shuts, so late arrivals should plan ahead. It sits among a short stretch of shops on Ravendale Street North, with the chippy's outdoor benches catching foot traffic from passers by.

Customer Review Summary
Fish and chips draw the most praise at Scalinis, with reviewers singling out the haddock and chips with mushy peas, extremely fresh fish, and tasty chips. Close behind is service, described as friendly, attentive, and in one case the quickest a reviewer has witnessed, with a server and a young cook both noted for making sure customers were happy and had cold drinks. Several also point to good value and decent portions, and one reviewer calls the place lovely and clean. Sausage and chips also gets a mention as a good fallback. The criticism is small but specific. One reviewer found the batter a bit overdone and had a few bones in the fillet, another said the fish smelt very strong, and a third found the nuggets had run out near closing time. That diner still called the tea very good and the prices fair, settling for sausage and chips instead.

“My first experience at Scalinis as I'm based in the Midlands.Natalie served us and was so welcoming & friendly, exceptional customer service and she was so chatty regarding our visit to North Lincolnshire whilst serving us, to the owner's & management please note to give her full commendation for her sociable nature. The food was delicious and we wholeheartedly recommend the haddock & chips with mushy peas. Many thanks Natalie we'll be sure to return next time, regards Mr Gomez.”

“We visited on the 9 July 2026 We sat outside as it was very hot. The young guy cooked us a fresh piece of fish and some chips they were lovely. The guy was very attentive to his customers ensuring they were very happy with their order. And that we had cold drinks. Worth a visit as this chippy cooks and sells nice food.”

“Popped in tonight to get some tea, top notch is all I can say. Yes, the wife asked for nuggets and they'd run out but that's what you get for going in with half an hour to closing time - so instead we had sausage & chips each. Very good prices with decent size portions.”
